Puzzle 068 - Find the Pentagons

A number of five-sided shapes are hidden within the picture below. How many can you find? Answer when you think you've found every hidden shape.

Hint 1

There are no equilateral pentagons within the shape, so all the ones you do find will have at least two sides with different lengths. Count each one as you spot.

Hint 2

Count every five-sided shape you can find! Each pentagon you spot can be reproduced on a different section of the picture by rotating the image 90 degrees. That means that for every type of pentagon you find, you've actually found four more pentagons.

Hint 3

Surround the square in the middle of the picture with triangles from within the picture to make different pentagons.

Make a special effort to look for pentagons formed by attaching multiple triangles to the square in the picture. These are usually the hardest to spot.
